Doncaster have confirmed a string of new signings this week, as the rugby league side prepares for the 2026 Championship season and maintains aspirations for Super League promotion.

On Tuesday centre Brad Hey penned a new two year deal with Dons, having made 70 appearances for the side across three seasons.

Wednesday saw Cory Aston switch allegiances from Sheffield Eagles to join their South Yorkshire rivals on a two year deal.

Connor Robinson, formerly of Hull KR, Halifax Panthers and York, confirmed he would stay in South Yorkshire for another two years, as he nears 100 appearances for Doncaster.

Earlier today Doncaster confirmed that hooker Connor Jones had penned a 24 month deal at the Eco-Power Stadium after leaving Featherstone Rovers.

The 29 year old Australian becomes the third addition to the squad ahead of 2026, along with Cory Aston and Muizz Mustapha, who joined last week.

The rebuild comes as Doncaster have made no secret of their ambition to challenge for the top of the Championship.

A bid to be promoted to the Super League fell short earlier this month, with Dons given a Grade B in the IMG Gradings.
